This is a thing of beauty.
Masterfully done, Scarlett. This is outrageously good macroplay. Last game now. Finish Polt, let's go!

Then the mutas get to fly wherever they want to without having to deal with drops and then you lose all your shit everywhere because muta balls are good. The mutas are essential in holding off a 200/200 push towards a single base, if he split and positioned himself (like he did in the one game he won this series) to posture mining bases; he could starve her out of gas and minerals. Right now he is just throwing away units at bases that are barely mining or not mining at all and then losing his entire army in the center of the map. Not really. The strength of mutas isn't in army fights. They are useful sure but the point of banelings is to be cost effective in cleaning up an army without mutas. The strength of mutas are 1. Drop defense 2. Harass for days. | ||

Can you even deal with that big a muta cloud w/o thors? Those mutas are doing work. thors don't do as much now with the muta regen and they cost an arm and a leg. Plus those bastards are so big and clumsy that they always get caught by shit. They are like ultras but even worse to keep track of. Well his widow mine strategy obviously isn't cutting it, he's been losing the same way for 5-6 games in a row now. | ||

I feel like Polt is getting exhausted (I guess he also played two long TvT vs Major as well) | ||

Polt please win. Don't have a problem with Scarlett I think she's cool and good and whatnot but her fanboys are the most hardcore of all of them. | ||

How many lives does she have left? She must be in the ZvT own zone. Has she defended any 2rax? She got two lives left and no 2 Rax yet. | ||
